The Golden State Warriors didn’t exactly cruise into the play-in tournament. Their season wrapped up with a nail-biting 124-119 overtime loss to the Clippers on Sunday — a game that not only dropped them to the No. 7 seed but also came with a side of concern thanks to banged-up bodies all over the roster. Stephen Curry’s thumb, Draymond Green’s neck, Jimmy Butler’s thigh — it was like a game of Operation out there.

But here’s the good news: The Warriors are rolling into Tuesday night’s play-in game against the Memphis Grizzlies looking healthy — at least on paper. And yes, Jonathan Kuminga’s status is now one of the biggest talking points, especially after he didn’t log a single minute in that finale.

Injury Report: Stars Ready to Roll

Warriors fans can breathe easy. No players are listed on the injury report, not even the three guys who scared everyone on Sunday. Let’s start with Steph Curry, who jammed his right thumb in Friday’s blowout win over Portland.

He had X-rays done, played through the pain, and dropped 14 points — but it was obvious he was favoring that hand. Then came Sunday, when he dropped 36 points against the Clippers (21 of those in crunch time), even though he coughed up a season-high eight turnovers trying to protect his hand. Still, he gave reporters a classic Curry shrug when asked about it. “It was fine… I try not to think about it too much.”

Next up: Draymond Green, who took a Norman Powell hip-check to the back of the head early in the first quarter. He hit the floor, grabbed his neck, and went to the locker room, but came right back like nothing happened. Green ended up playing 38 minutes and downplayed any fatigue or lingering issues. “We’re not senior citizens. We’re high-level basketball players.”

Jimmy Butler, the man who’s been here all of two months and already owns half the locker room, also played a wild 48 minutes on Sunday. He banged knees with Kawhi Leonard and was limping late, but he wasn’t too concerned. “I’ll be all right. Go home and play some dominoes, drink some coffee. That’ll help me feel better.”

Basically, everyone’s sore, but no one’s sitting. Now, going back to Jonathan Kuminga.

Jonathan Kuminga’s DNP: What’s Going On Here?

Sunday’s DNP-CD (Did Not Play—Coach’s Decision) raised some eyebrows, and rightfully so. The stakes were high, and Kuminga has been one of Golden State’s most promising young pieces all season — averaging 15.3 points and 4.6 boards in 47 games.

So, why didn’t he play?

Steve Kerr kept it real after the game, saying it came down to rotation choices. “Both he and JK have been really impactful players for us. Doesn’t mean they’re out of the loop going forward — it’s just how this game played out.” Jimmy Butler’s arrival changed everything. The Warriors have tightened the rotation, and for now, that’s squeezed Kuminga out in crunch-time situations. It’s not about his talent — it’s just the numbers game.

But don’t think Kuminga is sulking. Instead, he stayed after the game, working on his jumper with his trainer, Anthony Wells, for over an hour. That kind of grind doesn’t go unnoticed, and Kerr left the door wide open for Kuminga to return to the mix — maybe even against Memphis.

Jonathan Kuminga might’ve been benched on Sunday, but that doesn’t mean he’s out of the picture. With the Warriors fully healthy and playoff pressure mounting, Kuminga’s athleticism and energy could be a key X-factor — especially against a depleted Grizzlies squad. If Kerr decides to unleash JK, don’t be surprised if he makes a statement. Because while the stars are shining, Jonathan Kuminga is still waiting for his spotlight — and he’s ready.
